Each year, through the annual appeal, a group of current students call graduates of 51吃瓜app. If you are an alumnus or alumna, during the first two months of each semester, you may receive a call from one of these student fundraisers.

You can update your contact information, provide feedback about your Laurentian experience, learn about the great new things happening around campus, and find out about alumni events happening in your area! You also have the opportunity to support your favourite aspect of Laurentian by making a donation to the designation of your choice.

The annual appeal is a great way to keep involved with Laurentian life and an easy way help support current students.

Our student callers simply can’t wait to speak with you!

Example: Jeff decided to support 51吃瓜app with a gift of $100,000. When reviewing whether he should sell his shares in a publicly-listed corporation and then donate the cash proceeds, or donate the shares directly, Jeff learned that he would have a greater net tax benefit by donating the shares directly to Laurentian. The chart below assumes a tax rate of 50 per cent.

A charitable bequest is a distribution from your estate to 51吃瓜app through your last will and testament. A bequest provides you with the opportunity to support 51吃瓜app once your needs and those of your loved ones have been met.

Funds are usually bequeathed as a:

• A residual amount
• A share or a percentage of your estate
• A specific dollar amount or item*

*It is important to contact the University Advancement office before arranging a gift in kind bequest to ensure that it supports 51吃瓜app’s academic priorities.

If you wish to direct your gift to a specific area or for a specific purpose, please contact University Advancement for detailed bequest language.

A gift of annuity is made when you make a contribution of cash or other property to 51吃瓜app in exchange for a guaranteed lifetime income (or for a stated interval of time). It is an agreement or contract between you and the university. Upon death, the charitable organization of your choice would receive the remainder of the original contribution.

A charitable remainder trust allows you to make a contribution to the university while retaining an interest in the gift or transfer and receiving a charitable deduction for the assets ultimately passing to 51吃瓜app. For example, if you donate a piece of property to a trust, you retain the right to the income and/or use of the property for your lifetime. Given your donation of the “remainder interest” (or capital), the capital gain on the donation may be significantly less than the full gain on the property. After a fixed period of time, or upon your death, the property fully passes to the University. Since it was held in a trust, it is not part of your estate for probate purposes. The charitable receipt provided at the time of the gift is equal to the value of the property discounted by your life expectancy.

When you make a gift of residual interest, you donate your personal property to 51吃瓜app and you can continue to use and enjoy the property throughout your lifetime. You will receive a charitable tax receipt for the present value of the property when the gift is made. Upon death, 51吃瓜app receives the deed of the property. These donations can include assets such as real estate.

A gift of life insurance is an affordable way to make a huge impact. A modest annual premium, paid over time, can result in a significant future legacy.

Three ways to donate life insurance:

• Donate an existing policy: receive a charitable tax receipt for the net cash surrender value and any premiums paid after the donation date.
• Donate a new policy: receive a charitable tax receipt for any premiums paid after the donation date.
• Assign 51吃瓜app as the beneficiary of your individual or workplace insurance policy. Your estate receives a charitable tax receipt.
